Obviously the corals are in great health, just takes time for them to regain their original shape. IME we're talking at least few years for the skeleton to grow round again, but the flesh can and will "re-shape" as much as it can without the skeleton shaping it's growth. Also the larger the coral, the longer it will take... the skeleton's are intricate and do not grow as something like an Acro would.

Here is one of the two in September, the flesh is rounded out but the skeleton has a ways to go.
